IASSID World Congress 2008

You are warmly invited to the 13th IASSID World Congress, which will take place in Cape Town, South Africa, from 25th - 30th August 2008. We usually welcome over 1500 people from all over the world to our World Congresses and we anticipate that this Congress will be no exception. IASSID has held World Congresses in many parts of the World over the years, including France, Finland, the USA, Ireland, Australia and India. No IASSID World Congress has ever been held in Africa, however, so we are excited to be going to this continent for the first time. All the Special Interest Research Groups will be represented and there will be a wide range of themes and plenary talks, as well as the many and varied symposia, papers and posters. We anticipate that with your involvement and that of our Scientific Advisory Board, we will have a wonderfully rich and relevant scientific programme.
